I have always admired Roy, for organising the first folk club in Cardiff, for his singing, for championing The Gower Nightingale, Phil Tanner, for going out to earn a living alone and unaccompanied, for his boundless knowledge in the folk tradition, for giving me so much enjoyment through his albums, for his expert CD reviews, and for beating me in the long-distance run at Sidmouth Festival all those years ago! Condolences to Elaine, Neil, Anne and all his family; also to Mike and Pat. Here's to one who was so unique, and Roy - your star's shining brightly tonight.
